Lost in Our Selfishness

"
But if you have bitter jealousy and selfish ambition in your hearts, do not boast and be false to the truth. This is not the wisdom that comes down from above, but is earthly, unspiritual, demonic. For where jealousy and selfish ambition exist, there will be disorder and every vile practice" – James 3:14-16

In our world, we are often so centered in pride and selfishness, that we find no room for God in our hearts. It's all about us, how much stuff we can accumulate, and our position in life. It's not until God knocks us down a peg or two, that we begin to realize that we have all we need in Him.

Seeking and Following,
Dean

You go nowhere by accident. Wherever you go, God is sending you, wherever you are, God has put you there; He has a purpose in your being there. Christ who dwells within you has something He wants to do through you wherever you are. Believe this and go in His grace and love and power.
